More than 11.64 lakh examinees appeared for the examination to fill up 12,178 posts of constable in Rajasthan Police, official sources said.
All trains and buses plying in all 32 districts were not only jam-packed, but the aspirants also travelled on their tops to reach the examination centres, the sources said.
There were 2.50 lakh examinees in Jaipur alone, appearing for the examination from 542 centres.
Despite the railways running special trains to ease out traffic on various routes, that too appeared to be inadequate to avoid the chaotic situation.
There was, however, no report of any untoward incident and the examination passed off peaceful, barring delay in distributing papers to examinees in some centres, the police headquarters sources said.
